We now bring you the ability to add Monthly Payment for any unit on your listing inventory to display on your website. To add monthly payment on a unit, select the Monthly Payment section under Pricing, enter the financing terms and click save.
The calculated Monthly payment along with loan term, interest rate, and down payment will appear on the unit listing. A disclaimer is included.
*This feature will release over the next week and not be fully available to all dealers until March 22

Parts and Service Invoice "Receipt Type"
This feature gives you the option to print your Parts and Service receipts in the traditional format and also gives you the option to send them electronically via SMS Text message or as an Email attachment. Other options in the window include the ability to hide part numbers, send invoices internally, and one time use SMS and Email communications for cash customers.
Some of you may not want the Receipt Type Popup to come up when completing Parts and Service Invoices, if this is the case there is a setting in Dealership Settings / General Information where you can turn this off.
We have always had a report that allows you to keep track of your not yet picked up Special Orders items, but not one to keep track of your not yet picked up Layaway items. Thus, we have now added a new report called Open Layaway Report under Parts Reports that includes all parts that are currently on layaway (not yet picked up).
Parts Inventory Min-Max ReOrder report Update
We have updated the “Parts Inventory Min-Max ReOrder Report” to include Quantity Sold for Last 12 Months. We believe this update can provide you with better information to determine Min/Max Settings.
Bin Locations Enhancement - Phase 2
To complement previous Bin enhancements to parts and service invoicing we added additional enhancements to part receiving and part inventory searches.
We have added Bins 2 and 3 to:
Receiving Session Summary
Receiving Without a PO
Receiving Session Summary Printout
“Enter” label to Now Make User Aware it is Modifiable
The ability to search parts inventory by “Bins”
Displays all three Bin locations in the Parts inventory grid with drop down options other than Bins
Chart Enhancements
To make the MU and Parts Inventory Charts easier to read we updated the formatting to the parts and service charts:
Horizontal Layout of Data - allows full display of data labels
Data Values added to bars to make it clearer
*This change requires a DX1 Windows 10 App update
Order Export Files
To make it easier for dealers and to reduce errors we have added the option for Harley and EZGO dealers to export Parts order files.
The actual export process is the same as it is for all other parts vendors
*This change requires a DX1 Windows 10 App update
Show all Open Invoice numbers when posting an MU Deal
There are scenarios where a deal can not be posted because of an open Parts and or Service invoice and it is not always easy to track down the open invoices.
To make this process more efficient and transparent we now display a complete list of ALL invoices that are preventing a deal from being Posted.
